Can't get domain name of websites #39

Closed Helocominc closed 1 year ago

Helocominc commented 1 year ago

Add the option to get domain name of the website url in metadata. Instead of displaying the full url just show the domain. Issue

This is the expected domain sample expected

You can do that on your side as well

String getUrlHost(String url) {
  Uri uri = Uri.parse(url);
  return uri.host.replaceFirst(RegExp(r"^www."), '');
}

Okay thanks. I will try that.

Hi @Helocominc

We are not rendering the title, or body manually. Whatever the meta-data is giving us, we are rendering the same. I guess for youtube videos, it is giving full length instead of just the domain name or some description.

You can always use your method to fetch meta-data and render your own UI by using the above-mentioned helper function. Thanks for helping the community @LeGoffMael
